Joy’s United Gift Shop
Location: 77 Tennessee Street Ringgold, Ga.
Sara-Anne & I have been going to Joy’s basically our whole lives. We love everything about it! Joy Thornton the owner of Joy’s United Gift Shop has become a dear friend of ours. And she has amazing creativity and taste. Every time we step foot in Joy’s we come out full handed! Sometimes I feel like we are buying the whole store. Her shop is a gem for sure. We highly recommend it. The August Sisters normally don’t like to give away our secrets but we think that vintage stores should not ever be kept a secret. They need to be shared and Joy’s is one of those places that you just have to see for yourself. There is so much to see and find. The hunt is way too much fun there. We always find something spectacular.
Joy started her shop in 1998 and stayed open until 2003. She decided to close it for two years and then reopened it back up in 2006 and it is still open. Joy’s United Gift Shop has been open in total of 16 years. Wow. That’s incredible! Go Joy!
Sara-Anne & I just recently went to Ringgold’s vintage market they have from time to time. And our first stop was Joy’s. We had a blast. We actually found some incredible pieces for our shop and also for ourselves. We both can’t wait to show you what we found. Hint: there might, possibly be a Oscar de La Renta night gown in there. Eek! We found some incredible and funky one of a kind jewelry pieces as well.
We are really enjoy sharing our vintage experiences and one of a kind finds with you! We can’t wait to see what ya’ll think.
We love ya’ll!
Xoxo,
Hannah, The August Sisters
